‘I have six sugar babes’, says Henrik. But you probably wouldn’t believe him.

Standing at a rather small stature, with stark red hair – I picture a naive Mick Hucknall, rather than a rogue Serge Gainsbourg.

Henrik is 32 and has a top job at an oil company, but behind closed doors he’s a sugar daddy.

Last week we spoke to a Toy Boy, but what’s it like to be on the other side of things? We spoke to Henrik to find out.

He says that he got into the sugar daddy scene having been relatively unattractive all his life:

Because of my appearance, I’m not very popular. Now I am dating beautiful girls. I’m realistic: I’m not the picture that most women are looking for. That’s why I ended up two years ago in the sugar dating world. I don’t have a wife or children and have been a bachelor all my life.

Although Henrik has to whip out his cheque book for absolutely everything when he’s with his sugar babes, he gets their affection and attention, and apparently that’s enough for him. Hey, whatever floats your boat…

He adds:

Finances play the most important role for me. I see myself as a grown man with experiences in life. I have complete control over my life and my money, and I want to share the opportunities that life gave me with an attractive lady.

Using the site sugerdaters, Henrik surfs through a catalogue of boys and girls – which hopefully isn’t quite as creepy as it sounds.

With sugarbabes in the UK, Norway, Denmark, and Sweden – you’d think that the cost would really stack up.

So how much does it all cost?

It varies how much money I spend with each of them, but the average on a date is between two hundred and five hundred pounds. The ladies never get paid in cash. For example, the lady in Norway loves beautiful new clothes; what woman doesn’t? The lady in Sweden, I help with her ​​rent. The others like jewellery and A LOT of other things.

Although you’re probably wondering what it is that Henrik gets for his money. Well he sums it all up in one word.

Companionship. Because of my appearance (red hair, very thin and small in stature) I’m just not very popular among the ladies. Now they always claim that it is the inside that matters until they meet me. Appearance means a lot to women even though they claim otherwise, as well as what’s ‘downstairs’.

Sex doesn’t automatically belong on a date, in fact, I feel offended if the lady in question assumes that sleeping with me is a ‘must’. If she brings up the sex topic too soon, then it’s over for me.

My worst experience took place when I met a new sugar babe who asked within 10 minutes if she was supposed to sleep with me. I felt cheap and insulted.

And, despite the sugar daddy / sugar baby relationship being little more than a financial and emotional transaction – the human heart can still get attached.

I am totally crazy about one of the girls I am dating, I prefer to only date her and not see the rest any more. She is so fun to hang around with and her interests are exactly the ones I am looking for in a lady. But she is a sugar babe that sees several sugardaddies. I wouldn’t dare ask her if I’m not the only one but maybe when the situation makes me frustrated enough I’ll give up and ask her.

Henrik concludes that, although someday he’d like to settle down and have kids, he’s just not ready for it quite yet.
